I really don't know what to say, it's just so beautiful

Frost · 01-31-2015, 11:12 PM

I want to hear this beauty SING in a real driving environment!!!

I'm glad someone finally swapped that engine into this chassis. If money was no object, this motor is the perfect motor for this car.

Here I was hoping to read more development on the fa20 by JUN. Seems like just about everybody scraps the lump. Is it really that much of a POS?

Lovely car for sure. But no fa20, no care. And $70,000 for that setup, better to just go out and buy a C7 Vette.

Lol, that's 70k for just the engine and swap kit.

JUN is absolutly working on the FA20, they even revealed high lift cams, a carbon intake/box and a valved exhaust at the recent 2015 Tokyo Auto Salon! JUN AFAIK really only does engine tuning and their own parts. I can't recall them ever making any forced induction kits which still seems the only way to hit 300+ in the twins.

Yes, 70k for the engine setup. Insane but definitely unique.

I noticed they came out with FA20 cams. Hence why I was a little disappointed when I read the article to find out that they junked the fa20 in favor of this micro v8. Was hoping to read about a race cammed ITB fa20 revving to 13000

So again, stagnent development for our turd fa20.

It's not that I don't like this car. I am in love with the idea! But it's unattainable to about 98% of us here. And the the 2% that do have the means, the new NSX for $150k is much more appealing than a $150k modified JUN brz.

I do hope to see the JUN fa20 cams wake this motor up though.

looks like a sport-bike tach... awesome!

Brzerker · 02-01-2015, 12:58 PM

Wow... Just wow...

Turbowned · 02-01-2015, 01:36 PM

For the BRZ owner who has it all... Love it but could never see anyone justifying it. This is strictly a "we did it because we can" effort. What I would give to drive it, though!

BRZnut · 02-01-2015, 08:25 PM

That's one way to get rid of the crickets!

Ganthrithor · 02-01-2015, 09:16 PM

Pretty cool. Wasn't there an American company that was building engines very much like this until recently? I think they used Hayabusa heads?

Still waiting for a good flat six build for these cars, though. Nothing beats the sound of an engine with cylinders in multiples of three.
